Hello,

I am writing from Montreal, Quebec. I am 31 and here is my plan.
Summer 2018: Marathon
Summer 2019: 70.3
Summer 2020: Ironman

I would love to hear tips and thoughts. And ideas for a first bike. I definitely cannot afford a dedicated tri bike. I was thinking of getting a basic carbon bike and putting TT bars on it.

Thank you for your input,

T

Hi T, welcome!

It's a good idea to get a bike fitting BEFORE you buy a bike. It's not that expensive, you can find recommendations for a good fitter in your area (through slowtwitch.com) and it will save you a lot more money than buying a bike that's not suitable.

Consider also used bikes.

It's also a good idea to do a few half-irons before attempting the full. But you'll probably come to that same conclusion after finishing your first half

Good luck!
